The Shop for a Survivor event held in the Fairhope Civic Center during the Fairhope Art Walk will feature the resale of clothing donated by generous local citizens and businesses. The gathering will provide an opportunity for Little Tree Project to share about the local issue of human trafficking to spread awareness and raise funds for the organization’s prevention and aftercare programs.

The event will also provide an opportunity to start the conversation of the continuous need of the community's donations of clothing and other in-kind items. The environment will be relaxed and inviting where light, fall-themed refreshments will be provided by Kind Cafe to the event attendees as they explore and purchase clothing.

We will have second-hand clothing from great brands like J-Crew, Carly Jean Los Angeles, Zara, and more at prices as low as $3! In addition to our clothing resale, we will also have Little Tree Project merch available for purchase, and several of your favorite local vendors including The Threaded Oyster, The Quirky Mac, Better Together Laser Artistry, and more!

Did we mention that we are also having this event on Art Walk Friday?! See you there!

We are extremely grateful for our two Silver Event Sponsors:

• Fulcrum Construction Group

• Marine Upholstery Solutions

Mark your calendars! Little Tree Project is proudly participating in their first Giving Tuesday, the global day of unity and giving.

Giving Tuesday Now

COVID-19 has brought the world to a halt, but human trafficking is just as thriving as ever. In fact, its increasing and traffickers are finding new ways to prey on the vulnerabilities of victims. Thats why we need your help. 

With your help, we will be able to launch our organization and be closer to providing victims and survivors of trafficking hope and purpose through our program! You can end someone's suffering today. If you’re interested in contributing, follow this link to our giving page.

3 Ways Trafficking Has Gotten Worse during the COVID-19 Pandemic:⠀
⠀
1️. Sex traffickers are taking advantage of this nation-wide coronavirus pandemic by luring in isolated kids through online platforms. Since it is recommended for everyone to stay indoors, porn sites are offering free or discounted rates for viewing explicit content. While kids are out of school, research shows that porn searches skyrocket by 4700%.⠀
⠀
2️. During this crisis, many people enjoy staying at home with their families. But the victims of trafficking are held as hostages, unable to escape to other shelters apart from their traffickers. ⠀
⠀
3️. During unemployment and unstable living conditions, people can become susceptible to the idea of prostitution. This fear of financial loss is one of the main motivations many men and women turn to other "employers" (or more commonly known as "traffickers") who offer hope and a paycheck. Unfortunately, the tables turn very quickly, exposing false hope, dangerous situations, and illegal jobs. ⠀
⠀
Slavery is no joke. It must be stopped. Prevention can make all the difference. By spreading awareness, we will save our children, expose traffickers, and put an end to modern-day slavery!

We are so thankful to be able to participate in the global generosity movement of Giving Tuesday Now.
